Award-Winning Auto Bodywork Professionals, ChipsAway, Set a Shining Example

WhichFranchise has awarded ChipsAway St Albans with The Great British Franchisee Award for exceptional performance and service in the automotive sector. It’s one of the highest honours in the country, and the owners, Brian and Amanda Palmer, are exceptionally pleased with the prize. The man-in-a-van methodology with only eight members shows how much dedication the franchise team has.

Not only do they provide services to their community, but the ChipsAway St Albans branch also supports fellow franchisees. If any of them are in a pickle, Brian and Amanda are quick to assist where possible. It shows how much dedication they have to the franchise and each other.

Rebecca de Chair, Group Marketing Manager of ChipsAway International, is exceptionally proud of them:

“Brian and Amanda have been nominated for no less than **six of our internal company awards** since they joined the network, **winning a fantastic four times**, including Franchisee of the Year in 2018 and 2022, and our Customer Service Award twice. During the Covid lockdown, they truly went **above and beyond**, using their van to deliver meals to NHS frontline workers – an initiative that saw them win What Car magazine’s Van Hero award.”

With a humbled approach, Brian and Amanda know that the success of their ChipsAway franchise business could not have been possible without the community. They spread the word about the good automotive bodywork performed, bringing in more customers. It’s a testament to the hard work they put in to ensure client satisfaction.
